If theres time, i'm sure they'll show any exciting sub or ko from the prelim card

Yea, Spike seems to give UFC as much time as they want so I think it must of been their call. They could just have a show start at 6 and call it UFC prelims so its not like they are telling mainstream people to watch 5 hours straight of cage fighting. I would want to though

It'll be 4 fights on TV, more if time permits, with 6 prelims not scheduled to air. Remember that if every fight goes the distance, each fight takes about 25 minutes total.

Each fight will be 15 minutes. Only title fights are 25 minutes.

5 minutes per round, 1 minute between rounds, 5 minutes between the end of the fight and the official announcement and 5 minutes of fighter introductions.

equals over 25 minutes a fight

Hopefully the commercials won't bog down this event. Last fight night had so many commercial breaks it was surprising they weren't running Burger Kingcommercials during the tale of the tape.

its true, i like they give the general public free fights but commercials piss me off, i like to hear the corner talk to their fighter between the rounds

I forgot about TUF Wednesday. At least we'll have that to look forward to after the fights. Seems like I keep bringing this up in other topics, but it would be great if they regularly showed all the undercard matches. They could work out a deal with VS and show them on there before all the PPV's and Fight Nights if they're not able to get time on Spike.
